from my research of horror film posters I have found that most film posters of this genre have similar elements included in them which give the audience a clear indication of what genre the film is. My research shows me that horror film posters typically include dark backgrounds, distorted images, blood splatters and red text. The use of distorted images doesn't give much about the film away, which gives the film a sense of mystery. This entices the audience to find out more about the film. The red text used connotes blood, which implies to the audience that the film has gruesome content. Some horror film posters also include blue tints which connote coldness, blue tints can also connote calmness which juxtapose with typical horror film conventions.
